Parking

Parking Information

France Farm: on the grass verge at Little Nutford, by the gate (what3words: valuables.lilac.crowns), access via the Nutford fishery gate (what3words: realm.pony.dangerously). Durweston/Bryanston: parking near the access points is difficult and requires a good walk — either Bridge Meadows access (what3words: skimmers.curiosity.enable) or Durweston Village Hall (what3words: dressings.interests.grain); please be considerate of other users of the village hall. Bank access on that side is via the public footpath at the Middle Lodge, on the left approaching Durweston from the bridge (what3words: qualifier.fingertip.windmill), or via Church Road towards Bryanston School (what3words: gilding.summer.willpower).
